RFR: JDK-8147447: [TESTBUG] serviceability/tmtools/jstack/WaitNotifyThreadTest.java test fails

[Alexander Kulyakhtin]

Yes, I have tested with these options and also has executed a test run with all the possible nightly options combinations.

Best regards,
Alexander

Looks good! I assume you have tested this with -Xcomp and -Xint.
